Welcome Matty Jarvis

We lose our number 7, we pick up a number 7. Matt Jarvis was officially unveiled as a West Ham player today, going straight into the squad heading to Swansea tomorrow afternoon. The transfer process was a long and drawn out but Big Sam has got his man. Jarvis adds a great attacking threat in the final third and one of the best crossers of the ball in that area. He won’t bang in a lot of goals but if the opportunity comes to him to finish he’ll do the job. We’re aware a lot of West Ham supporters hate Big Sam and his style of play but that said he’s at least getting the right players to play his system. Jarvis providing service to Carlton Cole could be a very fruitful partnership and our likely lineup at the top of the pitch of Jarvis, Cole and Ricardo Vaz Te is quite an imposing one. We’ll hold off on giving our final assesement on the transfers in and out of the club over the summer til the window closes, but so far Big Sam has done good.
